Touch This Fire

5. Shawn

ShawnI am definitely falling hard for Anthony. I have a feeling that he’s afraid of being hurt because just when I think he’ll let me in, he pulls away again. I want desperately for him to know that I will take care of his heart if he chooses to give it to me but it’s going to take a while to convince him of that. God I feel like a kid again falling in love for the first time!

I grin all the time like an i***t and I can’t compose my thoughts and tonight when he admitted that all he thinks about is me... .. ... It was all I could do not to take him right there in the café. I want to take things slow and make sure this is what we both want but I can’t. It’s like I don’t have a will of my own anymore.

I could have danced when he told me that all he wanted to do was make love to me.

On the walk back to his place Anthony did the sweetest thing. He took my hand in his and we walked as a couple. I know that was a big deal for him and it only made me fall harder. I keep catching him looking at me when he thinks I don’t notice and I bring his hand to my lips and kiss it. What a pair!
